Dear Confashion: How do I wear High-Waisted Jeans?


Yara: How do I wear High-Waisted Jeans?


A: This season everyone want to Channel their inner Modern Katherine Hepburn with the high-waisted trend. It’s all about proportions daaahling. it's actually very flattering to wear wide high-waisted pants to make the most of an hourglass figure. Just make sure to tuck a fitted t-shirt and a vest or a fitted romantic top (with frills if you like) to balance the look. If you feel it’s too cold outside, then complete the look with a cropped swing jacket or a capelet and high heeled patent platforms.

If you want to try the skinny high-waist look, then expect a lot of green envy from your peers and mall on-lookers as it’s tough to pull off this style and you need the have right curves honey (but not too much of them). Pair the skinny high-waisted jeans or pants with a loose tucked top and flats. Wear suspenders if you want to look daring.

How would you wear your high-waisted pants/skirts?

I think wearing a High-waist pants/jeans give the illusion of a flat tummy. But you can hide your tummy with a wide belt if the style of the pants allow to. Choose one that is made out of soft leather. Oh! and don't forget to wear Mid-hip Corset. Not only hides your tummy buy it also helps to camouflage VPLs.

She hasn't been looking good lately. :|

If the pants are wide, I think they'd help hip-py ladies hide their least fave areas..

Sorry, I'm not an expert in male fashion.

Agreed that this pic actually caused quite a hysteria in terms of "not a good style" for mischa. I agree that they should be worn if you have a flat tummy as they can elongate your figure..
but isnt it all about baggy/relaxed jeans now?
alexander wang, etc?

she isnt wearing them right. high waisted jeans with a cute plain shirt, or a cute ruffled shirt tucked in, with high pumps, cute simple round toe flats, or nice boots, is the way to wear them. That t-shirt just makes the whole outfit look messy. make sure the shirt is fitted, that way it shows your shape good...(esp if your wearing wide leg)
I have worn my skinny jean high waisted pants with a plain white fitted, tee, with a mid uper arm fitted sleeve. I paired that with a high black pump and black leg warmers the other day, and it came out adorable.
you have to just wear them right, other wise you would look like that micha picture.

Chanel Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection

I can't remember if I shared my views about Chanel's Dubai Cruise 2015 Collection on my blog or not, but I thought I'd share with you some photos of the pieces on display now at Chanel Boutique in Kuwait, Prestige in the Avenues and Salhiya Complex. I wasn't too crazy about the clothes. However, I did like some of the bags which had pompoms and tassels on them, as well as the gigantic pearl clutch. I also loved the Moroccan-inspired pointy flats and the silver jewelry adorned with coins and crescents. Of course the shoes were sold out in my size and I wasn't so crazy about the patterned ones. I LOVED the flap bag with Pom Poms, but it was above my budget. Overall the collection felt more Moroccan than Dubai-an. I wish if they have incorporate more of the our gulf region's culture into the designs. Oh And I added to this post photos of Chanel's milk carton shaped python clutch bag embellished with a CC signature. They're not part of the Dubai colle

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
